Research Fellowships

---

The Airey Neave Trust has generous funds of liquid money available and offers fellowships for academics wishing to undertake research in the field of human freedom. Such research, in a department of the fellow’s choice, will fall within the definition of helping to protect and/or enhance personal freedom under the rule of democratic law, either national or international, against the threat and consequences of political violence. It may, specifically, concentrate on a subject relating to terrorism, political violence and torture. Theologians are encouraged to submit proposals, especially those which would go some way towards shedding light on radicalisation.

The result will be a report, publication or publications, in the form of an article, series of articles, or monograph.

Exclusions:

Those doing masters’ degrees or doctorates.

Applications:

There is no application form and no closing date. However, applicants should produce a research plan for the period of the fellowship (which can be for one or two years) of not more than 500 words, giving a synopsis of the planned research and a more detailed account suitable for an expert referee’s judgment.

Seminars and Workshops:

The Airey Neave Trust is prepared to make sums up to £5,000 available for seminars and workshops, with certain guidelines.

PLEASE NOTE:

Enquiries should be made to the Administrator, Mrs Hannah Scott.
